Re: Wish Brother Morris well!

Awww, do you guys have any idea how pathetic it looks seeing a 275 lb man crying over his lap top? Seriously, thank you all for your kindness and caring, now and over years past. When I talk to high school wrestlers about college life, I always say that they don't have to worry about pledging in some silly fraternity, as wrestling will provide them with a world-wide band of brothers with out equal, for life. You brothers prove this to be true time and time again.
I am pretty nervous about the surgery Friday. It is going to be a total left hip replacement (my former leg riding side) and it looks like I will be in the hospital followed by rehab for a week or two. I am here at Ken Chertow's camp with my son and one of his teammates, totally soaking up the joy of kids learning & loving this sport and seeing guys like Ken and Nate Galloway who so clearly love teaching and working with kids. It really is wonderful to see. I am also realizing that I will never be able to actually get on the mat and bang heads again, which makes me profoundly sad. Fortunantly,thanks to forums and people like you guys, I can still be involved in it forever. Thanks again for your goodness and warmth. It is much needed and appreciated.

?Gentlemen, we can rebuild him. We have the technology. We have the capability to make the world?s first bionic man. Morris Johnson will be that man. Better than he was before. Better?stronger?faster.?

Don't give up hope man. I'm sure you'll be able to drill with your son, and teach him some of your stuff. Make sure you at least roll with him a little over the next few years... I know you will. Good health and happiness to you and your family Brother Morris!
